What is the condition of the brickwork at Vianden Castle?

Our castles and palaces must be maintained. Especially the brickwork must be checked regularly to avoid situations like the one in Beaufort. Recently, some stones have also tumbled down at Vianden Castle. In this context, our MP has submitted some questions to the Minister of Culture.

Op der Nordbastioun vum Veianer Schlass si virun etleche Woche Steng erofgefall. Dës Mauer misst effektiv stabiliséiert gi fir ze vermeiden, datt sech eng Situatioun wéi zu Beefort ergëtt.

An deem Zesummenhang wollt ech der Madamm Kulturministesch folgend Froe stellen:

  1. Ass de Service des Sites et Monuments schonn iwwer dëse Problem informéiert ginn? Wa jo, zu wat fir enge Konklusioune sinn d’Spezialiste komm?
  2. Gëtt den Zoustand vum Mauerwierk vum Schlass a besonnesch vun der Rankmauer reegelméisseg iwwerpréift? Wa jo, wat fir Feststellunge konnte rezent gemaach ginn? Gëtt et eventuell aner Stabilitéitsproblemer?
  3. Sinn d’Aarbechte schonn ausgeschriwwe ginn?

Answer

Weder de Service des sites et monuments nationaux (SSMN), nach d’Vertrieder vum Veianer Schlass kënne bestätegen, dass viru Woche Steng aus der Mauer vum Nordbastioun vum Veianer Schlass gefall sinn. Den Zoustand vum Mauerwierk vum Schlass gëtt reegelméisseg vum SSMN iwwerpréift a wann Aarbechten ustinn da gi se ausgefouert. Am Hierscht 2021 goufen di lescht Stabilisatiounsaarbechten um Mauerwierk vum Schlass realiséiert. Wéinst der Iwwerwaachung vun de Maueren gouf virun e puer Méint e Laserscan an eng Drohnendokumentatioun vun engem Ingenieursbüro gemaach. Déi Donnéeë ginn an de nächste Wochen ausgewäert fir d’Prioritéite kënne festzeleeën an eventuell Beräicher duerch punktuell Aarbechten ze sécheren. De Nordbastioun ass en Deel vun de Maueren fir déi vun 2022 bis 2026 Aarbechte budgetiséiert a virgesi sinn.

Do rapid diagnostic tests help against antibiotic shortages?

France is considering only allowing antibiotics to be prescribed if a rapid diagnostic test is carried out beforehand. This would make it possible to determine with certainty whether the infection is bacterial or viral.
This could on the one hand counteract the lack of antibiotics and on the other hand reduce antibiotic resistance.
DP MPs Gilles Baum and Gusty Graas asked the Minister of Health how many antibiotics have been prescribed in Luxembourg in the last five years and whether doctors should be made more aware of prescribing diagnostic tests.

Is therapeutic housing being commercialised?

Rumours are now circulating that the Ministry of Health is planning to entrust the management of therapeutic housing to a commercial company.
DP MPs Gusty Graas and Gilles Baum asked the Minister for Health whether these rumours were true and, if so, why this course of action was being pursued rather than supporting the existing players in approved outpatient psychiatry.
